[AS] Quality Thoroughbreds

Post by nix_uk »

Hi,

I've been playing for a little while and have lurked in the forums, so I thought I'd start a new farm log for my Andaluz Stud [AS] Thoroughbred breeding for quality competitive horses :)

The two horses below I picked up from the sales, the Arabian with no training and the Thoroughbred with some. They're multi Grand champion and Master champions respectively now they've completed training and entering comps regularly. I'm hoping to breed the next generations of competition horses from them.







My thoroughbred mare already has one promising offspring:




I look forward to reading other players' logs too :)

PS I'm not sure how the horse links work, am sure I managed it before! :D

Hi, I just wanted to help you with your pictures. They are beautiful horses. The formula actually looks like this:

Code: Select all

I'm doing this so you know in the future. Hope you don't mind me butting into your log :)

Golden Highlight is almost fully trained, I'm trying to adjust her temperament to high strung but she's stubbornly being bombproof lol

Golden Highlight



She's had a very nice colt, that I'm also training (again I'm experimenting with feeding to adjust his temperament):

Zues's Gold



Edited to add - sold fully trained for $250,000

I'm very pleased with my latest mare, she was born calm so I've been able to get her up to high-strung. Her stats are:
5* TB High Strung COI: 54.56% Gold Speed/Intel Green Agility
Speed 59
Strength 30
Stamina 27
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence
Balance 22
Movement 29
Agility 34
Tempo 25

Golden Distraction



She's in training and I'm hoping to get some more training courses done once I sell some of the other horses, both TBs and Arabs, so I can train them up faster (I haven't really been playing actively until recently, so $ is low).

Just thought I'd post a little update, as I'm really happy with the TBs progress so far :)

Golden Highlight has finished training and is a Champion+ in Racing/Steeplechasing. Zeus's Gold is almost complete in his speed/strength/stamina training and just started entering low level races. Gold Distraction is still in training, and is in foal.

This is the latest homebred TB foal that I'll be training up. He has gold Speed/Tempo/Agility/Intelligence and good conformation stats for Speed/Strength/Stamina (57/23/30):

Midnight Madness


HGP 62,215, 4 Gold (Speed/Tempo/Agility/Intel) Born Calm, currently Spirited
Kinda loving his colour - what is it? Silver bay pearl?
Speed 57
Strength 23
Stamina 30
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence
Balance 24
Movement 40
Agility 24
Tempo 31

I've changed the title as I'm concentrating more on TBs now, I've bred several, fully trained a couple and have 2 more in training, with 6 others either for sale and/or going to be breeding horses.

I'm totally unsure of how pricing works for them and I'd even lowered some prices of mine in the sales - all good racing/steeplechasing stats and/or high GP and relatively low COI but only a couple sold. However, I put Zeus's Gold in sales for $250,000, fully trained, and he sold overnight so perhaps I undervalued him? :D

This is the latest TB I've bred. He has pretty nice stats, similar to Midnight Madness' so may keep him as another stud to breed to MM's offspring, as the two are unrelated:

Awesome Distraction


HGP 62,850. Gold Speed/Agility/Intel Green Stamina. COI: 65.79%
Speed 56
Strength 32
Stamina 33
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence
Balance 18
Movement 26
Agility 34
Tempo 19

If anyone has any tips on pricing/marketing TBs, that'd be appreciated :)

I have been watching your progress. I am also a Thoroughbred breeder. I'd like to offer you a free covering to your best or favorite mare from this colt, SF Crius The Titan, sired by |PV| Titan, a very good racehorse. His colt is also doing very well. I will also give you a free fully trained colt or a free broodmare :D

Oh wow, that's so kind and generous of you. Thank you :D

I'd love a covering to [AS] Golden Distraction please and either a broodmare or fully trained colt would be wonderful, if fully trained I can keep on my second account so he doesn't age, if you'd like me to send him back after a while. Thank you again :)

I haven't updated this in quite a long time, but as PTP and the TB register are very quiet atm I thought I'd start to add updates here.

My latest breedings have been a little ... erm ... expensive. I am really happy with the foals bred though and in particular this filly

[AS] Diamond Siren


Speed 64
Strength 34
Stamina 41
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence
Balance 16
Movement 26
Agility 28
Tempo 24

Her bloodlines also trace directly back to my foundation mare.

Lots to catch up on, but horses I'm currently excited about are as follows.

[AS] Enchantress (dam of Siren)


Speed 63
Strength 32
Stamina 33
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence
Balance 22
Movement 31
Agility 35
Tempo 22

[AS] Golden Desire


Speed 62
Strength 33
Stamina 32
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence
Balance 15
Movement 32
Agility 35
Tempo 28

Oh and I almost forgot to mention this homebred [AS] filly. Her great grandsire is Retsi's Pink Panther, who she was kind enough to let me have covers from. I love this filly's dun leg markings :P

[AS] Pink Cloud


Speed 63
Strength 22
Stamina 35
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence
Balance 34
Movement 40
Agility 22
Tempo 28

I also have a few horses for sale, all with good stats/bloodlines, and due to space and splurging out on covers lol, all reasonable offers considered :)

Also ping me if you can't afford my stud's covers, if you're new and we can talk about discounts - to TB mares only though please.
